Homeowners typically search for a creosote remediation solution because they want to get rid of the obnoxious odor given off by creosote-treated wood. If you’ve noticed an unpleasant smell similar to mothballs coming from the wood used to build your home or commercial building, there’s a good chance that it was treated with creosote to protect the wood from moisture and insects. Creosote is a mixture of oil and tar that has been widely used to treat the pilings under waterfront buildings, as well as railroad ties, utility poles, and other wood products that sometimes end up as construction materials for homes or businesses.

The objectionable smell alone is a great reason to seek a long-lasting, effective solution to the problem. However, eliminating the smell is only one of the important benefits provided by CreoShield™, a creosote remediation coating available exclusively from EnviroShield. It’s also important to reduce the emissions from creosote-treated wood for health reasons. People exposed to creosote emissions have reported rashes and respiratory ailments, and some experts list creosote as a carcinogenic. Protecting your family or employees from these potential adverse effects is another reason you’ll want a reliable creosote remediation product.

A Creosote Remediation Coating from EnviroShield Is All You Need for a Lasting Solution to the Threats Posed by Creosote Emissions

In the past, the only creosote remediation solution available involved the arduous task of scraping away the creosote paint and sanding the wood, followed by applying shellac to the surface. This method takes a lot of time and doesn’t always eliminate the creosote odor.

Fortunately, our CreoShield™ coating offers an easier and more effective way to eliminate creosote odors and dramatically reduce the potentially harmful fumes that emanate from creosote-treated wood. A property owner or one of our Approved Applicators just needs to pressure wash the affected area and then apply our proprietary CreoShield™ coating to encapsulate the creosote fumes. This creosote remediation product, available exclusively from EnviroShield, provides the following advantages:

It’s available as a clear coating or in just about any color in the spectrum, which means you won’t have any trouble matching the existing décor of your home or business.

I had the basement treated with EnviroShield and overnight, it eliminated the dampness and the smell of mold.

Within the past few years we’ve finished our basement and added a bedroom and den and workshop and have absolutely no problem with mold. I can’t believe it ten years later and EnviroShield just keeps on ticking!

I am asthmatic and extremely allergic to mold! Recently, I had to vacate my previous office space because of a severe mold infestation … Enviro-MT got rid of the mold and odor. But the best part was EnviroShield stopped any moisture from seeping through the foundation. I am now adding a workshop, bathroom and family room to previously wasted space.

The rains came and went. The mold never re-surfaced. I felt confident enough to rebuild my basement for the third time. Now more than a year has passed, a wet year, one of the wettest recorded in local history and the walls are dry and there is absolutely no mold or odor and the dehumidifier that used to run relentlessly,…

The day after you came to our house and applied the first coat, my wife and I noticed the smell to be gone. We had a company give us a price on fiberglass panels costing $45,000.00 and they would not guarantee against mold or odor. My family and I can now go into the basement without becoming ill and have…

Well, after several hours the water was pumped out. The water had sat on my EnviroShield coated basement floor for several hours; I thought for sure your coating would simply be a mess. To my surprise, my floor was perfect – like the day you applied the EnviroShield!!!!!!!!! No bubbling! No flaking! No discoloration! No odor! No mold! I know…
